Avril 14th |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right you are then. but i have to admit, one can only listen to Phloam for so long. :-) |
||||||||
|

I'd have to say Ventolin. Simply never really liked it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
id have to say anything from SAW1 - i cant get into it - like - cmon - its fucking old-school house! sorry if i offend anyone - but goddamn - i cant stand that old shit - so boring :S |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ventolin sucked. but no one really talks about it - so therefore I dont think its overrated. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah - i like SAW2 though :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its boring, but the visuals are lush! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all of em!!! :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
the funkmaster is overrated!! ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed! |

ziggomatic17 just cuz it's a default time zone |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
ventolin because everyone talks about it being so hardcore and making their heads hurt. pussies. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think none of his tracks are overrated....they are all good, genius in my opinion...., i only wish i could produce the same... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Overrated? Come To Daddy EP Sorry, but it just never struck me! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Some stuff from classics is hardly worth a second listen. It is quite like generic belgian hardcore stuff... early hardcore rave stuff. Ofcourse, some stuff like Polinomial C and Analogue Bibblebath and Digiridoo are really nice..but on the whole, the tracks really don't hold up as songs... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
some of the piano pieces on drukqs are just plain bad. it makes it really obvious that he hasnt had any musical training |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't belive the number of times I used the word 'stuff' in the previous post. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I L-O-V-E Classics!! I bought it second hand, thinking it was a piece of garbage, but the CDs in mint condition, and I just die for the tracks on there... I can't explain it. They're just so...so unique. I have no idea where he got all the sounds from. Stuff like Phloam is just pure brilliance. (Then again, I'm an early Aphex junkie) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
vordhosbn (druqks cd1 trk2) everyone seems to love it but i think its crap...i tried and tried to like it, listening to it when im in different moods, but no its just a shite drill track that is neither interesting or emotional at all, its piss poor.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i know, some of the piano tracks ive tried to get into, the very first track is great....but some are so poor and minimal they are unlistenable.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Heaps of it sounds like clockwork to me... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats why I like them. they sound unusual. but avril 14th is just so prettyprettypretty and kind of reminds you of every other melancholic piano-tune you've ever heard. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Windowlicker. Never really liked it that much. *hides* I love all the piano stuff on Drukqs, except 'Father'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah. They are unusual, but when you go on a Drukqs binge for as long as I did, you appreciate every single track, then never really listen to the album properly ever after. I don't know why, probably because I know every single little bit of it from memory! Just gets a bit boring. But don't get me wrong: when the album grew on me, I remember saying the words, "I'll never need another album -- everything I've ever wanted is here." So...there you go. |

purlieu: Just wanted to take the opprtunity to congratulate you on your FSOL site. I visit it regularly; but I never knew you like Aphex Twin! And...is there any news on a new FSOL album? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, I just about only like the piano tracks. well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh! qrter, that's you. How're you doing! I didn't recognise you because you changed your avatar. Isn't that weird... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it's great...but then I'm a drummist...! (Pianist, bassist, guitarist, why not?!) :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

OLD....SCHOOL....HOUSE!?!?!?!?!?! Leave....now....! ;-) |

Kladfvgbung Micshk has got some of the best rhythms in it I've ever heard in a track. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In fact, I'm going to go and listen to it now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Girl/Boy Song and Vordhosbn are very good but overrated imo. also [weathered stone], my least favorite from SAWII i think. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also in general drukQs, Come To Daddy, and RDJalbum, those releases are good or very good but not as great as some find them imo (i find Come To Daddy being unequal, drukQs too long and sounding quite the same too often, RDJalbum lacking a bit depth). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree with Vordhosbn being overrated. it's good, but not as genius as many make it out to be....IN MY OPINION :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it's feckin awesome... (Just a post to test my clever new location) :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well whaddaya know, it replaces all of them! Doh! :-) |
||||||||

Toejam - sorry about the late reply! Thanks, glad you really like the site. I'm into most electronic music, really (except BoC), so it's no surprise I like Aphex Twin. ;) New FSOL album? Erm, later this year, preceeded by an Amorphous Androgynous single. That's all we currently know. |
||||||||

this is silly... of course people aren't going to be in love with the same aphex songs as others... that's why he's aphex twin! he evokes passion from all sides... i can't say that i dislike much of anything that he has released under the aphex twin moniker, but i'm not super fond of some of his releases under other names... it's mostly because a lot of it is earlier stuff, and doesn;t live up to the quality of much that he has put out since... but i still rank Saw 85-92 as one his greatest releases... yes it sounds like acid house... this is because he was busy being a forerunner of the genre when he was a teenager back in the bloody mid eighties... it's wicked because the melodies are timeless... and the steady beats are still interesting because of their sonic quality... |

drukqs is overrated |
||||||||
|
|

power pill pacman maybe? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
every 'single' and girl/boy. no others and even these arent really 'over'rated |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just because you don't like a track that 'everyone else' thinks is good, doesn't mean it's overrated. to claim that it is, is to say that you are somehow smarter, or are able to make a more accurate assesment of a track's value than everybody else. this is why i think these 'overrated' threads are silly and, well, overrated. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
druqks is UNDERrated |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
girl/boy song, definitely. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's only overrated if the ratio is an improper fraction. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
improper fractions are only for the HARDCORE among us |

windowlicker is overrated but i still dig it. |
